Here is what is going on. I have created a .Bat file containing When I start this manually by double clicking it will show my java program in my system tray and shows the process "javaw.exe *32" in Windows Task Manager. When I run this thru Task Scheduler it starts the process "javaw.exe" with out the *32 and does not show the program in the system tray. Nor is the program seem to be running at all with the expetion of the new process in task manager. Do you guys know what I am doing wrong?

Have you set the current working directory to the correct location to run that command.

Try adding the full path to the jar file to the command.
Or have the batch file do a CD to the correct folder.
